Ingredients

• 4 ounces breakfast sausage
• 0.5 finelys minced white onion
• 0.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
• 3 medium eggs , lightly beaten
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese , divided

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper

2. 2

   Heat a non stick skillet over medium heat and cook sausage until crumbly, 3 to 5 minutes. Add in the onion and cook, stirring and breaking up the sausage until it is no longer pink. Transfer mixture to a paper towel-lined plate and drain for 3 to 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Meanwhile, combine flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, Parmesan cheese, and parsley in a large bowl; whisking until well combined. Whisk in eggs until well combined. Add 3/4 cup Cheddar cheese and stir until mixed in. Spoon in sausage mixture and mix to form a thick batter.

4. 4

   Scoop out about a 1/4 cup of the mixture and drop onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle each 'cookie' with Cheddar cheese and slightly flatten with your fingers.

5. 5

   Bake in the preheated oven until firm, about 10 minutes. If cookie is still a little soft, cook for 2 minutes longer. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
